Under
the Numbering Plan, the Republic Telecommunication for Electronic
Communications (hereinafter: Agency) stipulates the structure of numbers and
addresses and sets out the manner of their usage in the territory of the
Republic of Serbia.

The
structure of numbers and addresses, as well as the way of their usage referred
to in paragraph 1 herein was made in compliance with the Law on Electronic
Communications (Official Gazette of RS, no. 44/10, hereinafter: Law) and
the Recommendations of the International Telecommunication Union (hereinafter:
ITU-T Recommendation).

2 Structure

The
structure of the numbers which are subject of the Numbering Plan was stipulated
according to the ITU-T Recommendations E. 164 and E. 212.

2.1
International number

An
international number shall consist of the Country Code (CC – Country Code)
followed by the National (Significant) Number (N(S)N), as shown in Figure 1
below.

In
accordance with the ITU-T Recommendation E.164, the maximum length of the
international number shall be 15 digits.

The
Country Code allocated to the Republic of Serbia shall be “381”.

For
international calls from the territory of the Republic of Serbia, the
international prefix “00” or “+” needs to be dialled first, followed by the
Country Code of the country where the call is terminated and the national
number, in accordance with the numbering plan of the relevant country.

The
international prefix shall not be a part of the international number.

2.2 National
number

In

Depending
on the application, National Destination Code shall be a geographic or a
non-geographic number.

For
calls from another geographic area or another public mobile network or for
calls to other non-geographic services, the national prefix “0” needs to be
dialled first, followed by the National Destination Code and Subscriber Number.

For
calls within the same geographic area (local call) only Subscriber Number needs
to be dialled. The national prefix shall not be a part of the national number.

2.2.1 National
number for publically available telephone services on fixed location

National
number for publically available telephone services on fixed location shall be a
geographic number. In this case, the National Destination Code (NDC) shall
determine a geographic area and shall be marked as Trunk Code (TC). The Trunk
Code shall be followed by the Subscriber Number (SN) as shown in Figure 3

be used as leading digits of the Subscriber Number. Exceptionally, during the
one-year transitional period as of the entrance into force hereof, digit 1 may
be used as leading digit of the Subscriber Number.

Pursuant
to the Law, the Agency shall allocate the numbers for publically available
telephone services on fixed location to the operators in blocks of 1 000, 10
000 and 100 000 consecutive numbers.

2.2.2 National
number for public mobile communication network services

National
number for public mobile communication network services is a non-geographic

may be shorter.

For
national calls made from a public mobile communication network, with the
exception of calls to emergency services and assistance services, the procedure
referred to in item 2.2. para. 4 herein shall be applied.

Pursuant
to the Law, the Agency shall allocate Service or Destination Network codes to
the operators for public mobile communication network services, and the entire
permitted range of Subscriber Numbers which follow the allocated Service or
Destination Network codes shall be allocated at the same time.

2.2.3 National
number for other non-geographic services

National

“9”. The National Destination Code with the leading digit “7” shall be used for
the universal access number service, service for communication between devices,
nomad telephone service, telecommunications-voting service and other services
in accordance with the Numbering Plan. The National Destination Code with the
leading digit “8” shall be used for the free of charge call service, as well as
for other services in accordance with the Numbering Plan. The National
Destination Code with the leading digit “9” shall be used for Value Added
Service. The maximum length of the Subscriber Number for other non-geographic
services shall be 9 digits.

Pursuant
to the Law, the Agency shall allocate the non-geographic numbers for publically

The
Numbering Plan enters into force on the eighth day following the day of its
publication in the Official Gazette of the Republic of Serbia.

TheRepublic Telecommunication Agency (RATEL), Beograd , announces that
Telekom Srbija will terminate the provisioning of the International Operator
Assistance Service for semi-automatic calls, effective 10 March 2010.

Consequently,
as from this date, the Operator-Assisted Call Service for semi-automatic calls
(inbound and outbound) will cease, and all the existing arrangements with
